Under a DACA amnesty, American taxpayers would be left with a $26 billion bill. About one in five DACA illegal aliens, after an amnesty, would end up on food stamps, while at least one in seven would go on Medicaid. Since DACA’s inception under Obama, more than 2,100 illegal aliens have been kicked off the program after it was revealed that they were either criminals or gang members. JOHN BINDER

Ill. Legislator Wants to Sanction Firms That Help Trump Build Border Wall: A bill introduced Wednesday in the Illinois General Assembly would punish any businesses that help the federal government build a wall along the U.S. southern border by placing them on a “Prohibited Business List” alongside companies that boycott Israel and do business with Sudan and Iran.

(CNSNews.com) -- A billintroduced Wednesday in the Illinois General Assembly would punish any businesses that help the federal government build a wall along the U.S. southern border by placing them on a “Prohibited Investment List” alongside companies that boycott Israel and do business with Sudan and Iran.

Building the wall between the U.S. and Mexico was a major promise President-elect Donald Trump made to voters during his successful presidential campaign. It is also the first goal of Trump’s “10 Point Plan to Put America First.”

Trump said he will “begin working on an impenetrable physical wall on the southern border, on day one. Mexico will pay for the wall.”

The proposed legislation submitted by Rep. Will Guzzardi (D-Chicago) would amend the Illinois Procurement Code to prohibit any state agency from “entering into a contract subject to the Code with a business that contracts with the federal government to build a wall along the border of Mexico and the United States of America.”

The bill would also require theIllinois Investment Policy Board(IIPB) to “make its best efforts to identify all companies that contract to build a border wall and include those companies in the list of restricted companies distributed to each retirement system and theIllinois State Board of Investment” immediately after Trump’s inauguration next January.

According to IIPB’s website, “Illinois law current (sic) prohibits investment in certain companies that do business with Iran and Sudan as well as companies that boycott Israel.”

On Tuesday, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced that he would defy any orders from the future Trump administration to deport illegal aliens, vowing that “Chicago will always be a sanctuary city.”

Trump’s “10 Point Plan” also includes a pledge to “end sanctuary cities.”

In the
two trading sessions immediately following the election of Donald Trump last
Tuesday, the Mexican peso’s value plummeted over 12.6 percent, its most
precipitous decline since the 1994 financial crisis. By the close of last
Thursday’s session, the peso had fallen to 20.53 pesos to the dollar, from 18.6
on the eve of the election. It continued its plunge to 21.45 pesos on Friday.

The
abrupt devaluation of the peso reflected the upending of the Mexican ruling
elite’s expectations of a Clinton victory, and laid bare their anxieties over
what a government headed by Trump may presage. Particular concern has been
provoked by the president-elect’s protectionist rhetoric, including his professed intent to impose a 35 percent tariff on all Mexican-manufactured auto
exports to the US, along with his denunciations of NAFTA as “the worst trade
deal ever.” On the latter point, he has made vague threats ranging from abandoning it outright to renegotiating terms.

Bilateral
trade between the US and Mexico is estimated at US$583 billion annually, with
80 percent of Mexican exports going to the US. A renegotiation of NAFTA could
create conditions of crisis and uncertainty rivaling the effects of Brexit in
Europe.

Nevertheless,
the Mexican currency gained in value modestly to 20.3 pesos to the dollar this
week as the initial panic of Mexico’s financial aristocracy gave way to some
expressions of cautious optimism. Trump’s past remarks about infrastructure
investment and slashing of corporate tax rates down to 15 percent from 35
percent in the US are seen as potentially benefiting sections of Mexico’s
ruling elite as well in the long term.

The
far-right billionaire’s anti-immigrant vitriol is also of some concern to the
Mexican ruling class. This is motivated not by concern for the well-being of
the millions of undocumented immigrant workers he intendsto deport as by the
possibility of greatly diminished revenues from the remittances (currently
valued at US$24.8 billion per year) sent to Mexico.

There
remains considerable public anger over the political fiasco that was Trump’s
visit to Mexico in September. The display of servility by President Enrique
Peña Nieto toward Trump, the most hated figure in Mexico, served to further
undermine the legitimacy of his administration. Peña Nieto’s approval rating
has fallen to 26 percent.

Trump’s
threat of mass deportations is largely a continuation of the already existing
situation. Mexican Secretary of the Interior Osorio Chong recently announced
the expansion of the Programa Somos Mexicanos, a program that was implemented
in 2014 with the express purpose of reintegrating deportees into the workforce.
This was a complementary response to the Obama administration’s own deportation
policy, which sent back nearly 200,000 Mexican nationals in 2015 alone.

Similarly,
Trump’s proposed “wall” has elicited only the most guarded reaction from the
Mexican political establishment, which can do little else since it is caught
between the growing disapproval of the mass of the Mexican population on the one
hand, and the demands of its subordination to US imperialism on the other.

Peña
Nieto gave a brief press conference the day after the US elections in which he
related little of substance, except to reaffirm the prostration of that
country’s ruling elite to Washington. With regard to the charged question of
Trump’s deportation scheme, he could only offer: “As President of Mexico, I
will dedicate myself to the best of my ability, genuinely, with body and soul,
to watch over the well-being and the interests of Mexicans wherever they may
be.” The proposed border wall was noticeably absent from his address.

He
added: “President-elect Donald Trump expressed his willingness to work with
everyone and every country, looking for agreement and not hostility, alliances
and not conflicts, and Mexico shares that vision.”

Peña
Nieto will find areas of “agreement and not hostility” by adapting his
administration to Trump’s proposed police state measures to round up millions
of undocumented immigrants. Given his well-established record as enforcer of
Washington’s repressive immigration policies, carrying out tens of thousands of
deportations of Central American immigrants as part of the so-called Merida
Initiative, there is no reason to suspect that the Mexican elite will not
continue to do Washington’s bidding.

His
xenophobic appeals will inevitably run aground upon the intractable realities
of American capitalism’s dependence on a vulnerable and super-exploited layer
of undocumented immigrant workers. Divisions exist within the ruling class on
how to deal with the “problem” of immigrant workers, particularly on the part
of the large agribusiness conglomerates that have long pushed for immigration
“reform,” the better to manage and exploit their workers.

Dave
Heineman, who sits on Trump’s agricultural advisory committee, speaking to
agriculture newsletter Agri-Pulse on the future of trade deals such as TPP and
NAFTA, confirmed these differences: “Talk to governors of large industrial states
and they will tell you that while [agriculture] was favored in trade relations
in these trade deals, the manufacturing sector and other sectors of the economy
weren’t.”

Whatever
the final form taken by Trump’s approach to repressing immigrant workers, the
underlying political logic is to drive a wedge between workers who are
objectively linked across national boundaries in the production process, and
whose common interests are inimical to those of their respective ruling
classes.

Both
US and Mexican workers and farmers were negatively impacted by NAFTA, which was
developed by both Republican and Democratic administrations before being finally implemented in 1994.

Poor peasants found their livelihoods shattered by an influx of
cheap US agricultural imports propped up by federal subsidies. This coincided
with Mexico’s own slashing of agricultural subsidies alongside other neoliberal
counterreforms, including a wave of privatizations of key assets such as
telecommunications and railways and the dismantling of the constitutional
protections of the ejido (communal agriculture) system.

As a
consequence of NAFTA, Mexico, formerly self-sufficient in corn, now receives
half its supply from the US. Mexican agriculture is estimated to have lost
nearly a million and a half jobs—it was this ruination of the small Mexican
farmer that proved to be a major source for immigration northwards in this
period.

The growth of the Mexican industrial working class was manifested
in the mushrooming of low-wage maquiladora plants along the
border states to facilitate production across national boundaries, a process
known as “near-sourcing.” Mexico is now the third largest producer of
automobiles behind the US and Brazil in the Americas, and auto manufacturers
are eager to exploit a labor force whose wages average $5 an hour, barely a
third of what is being paid to the low-wage new-hires in US auto plants.

Andres
Manuel Lopez Obrador, head of the center-left Movement for National
Regeneration (Morena), has distinguished himself little from Peña Nieto with
his blasé comments advising the Mexican population not to “panic” about Trump’s
designs.

“In
the case of the United States, it’s best to wait and we’ll respond depending on
what they decide,” he said. “I hope that there are no unpleasant surprises—to
the contrary, it would be something they would have to rectify because nothing
will be resolved with walls and coercive measures. I trust that we’ll be able
to convince them that the best thing with regards to the United States is
cooperation for development.”

Lopez
Obrador is expected to turn any deterioration in US-Mexico relations under a
Trump administration to his own electoral advantage in 2018. To Trump’s
far-right strain of economic nationalism, Lopez will respond in kind, with the
support of the Mexican pseudo-left.

Tendencies
such as the Movement of Socialist Workers (MTS), the Mexican section of the
Morenoite FT-CI, attempt to formally distance themselves from the politics of
Morena, but what they advance politically is not substantially different. Their
insipid statement leading up to the US elections, “Neither ‘Killary’ nor Trump!
Organize the discontent against Yankee meddling!” bears all the trademarks of a
narrow nationalist outlook that repeatedly descends into vulgar anti-Americanism.

They
offer no analysis as to what accounted for Trump’s emergence as the Republican
frontrunner. The American working class appears in the piece not once. Instead,
there are only telegraphed clichés about the United States as an
undifferentiated imperialist monolith.

Significantly,
its main criticism against the ruling PRI is that it has “long ago abandoned
its nationalist rhetoric.” As the WSWS has pointed out, the basic aspiration of
sections of the upper middle class is toward a return to the kind of nationalist
course that existed in the days of the “Mexican miracle,” as if the objective
conditions that allowed for the limited gains of import-substitution
industrialization in the postwar period could be willed back into existence.
Should the MTS strike out on its own in 2018, it would only counterpose to
Morena’s protectionism a similar political trap for the Mexican working class,
albeit with pseudo-socialist window dressing.

Protectionist
measures are an economic blind alley that can only serve to intensify trade
disputes and geopolitical tensions. The bogus invocation of “national
sovereignty” in Mexico, or the promise to “make America great again,” can be
accomplished only on the basis of attacking the living conditions of the
working class, as already evidenced by Obama’s aforementioned “rescue” of the
auto industry in 2009. Put bluntly, the only way to bring jobs back on a
capitalist basis is to intensify the attack on all the hard-fought gains of the
working classes throughout North America.

In a worried editorial Thursday headlined “Preparing for the
worst,” the Mexico City daily La Jornada said that the
implementation of Trump’s campaign promises could create a population of 10
million people “in a situation of complete deprivation.” It called upon the
government to prepare a massive program of public jobs for building housing,
schools, clinics and other infrastructure. Acknowledging that such an
initiative would come at “an astronomical cost,” the paper warned that without
it, “Mexico would face an unmanageable, destabilizing and tragic human
catastrophe.”

As no
section of the Mexican bourgeoisie is prepared to carry out any such program,
the prospect is for a rapid intensification of the class struggle and a new
period of revolutionary crisis.

Sheriff: MS-13 Gang Brings Machetes, Rape, Scalping to Texas

Members of the hyper-violent MS-13 transnational criminal gang are bringing severe tactics like machete-hacking murders, rape, and scalping to Texas according to the Texas Sheriff’s Association.

Jackson County Sheriff Andy Louderback, who also serves on the Texas Sheriff’s Association, told Breitbart Texas on Monday that the MS-13 gang members are bringing a level of violence not seen before by gangs in the U.S.

“They have distinguished themselves as to the level of violence by committing heinous acts including hacking people to death with a machete, scalping, and raping young girls,” the sheriff said. “They are a Tier 1 threat in Texas.”

Louderback recently spoke on a teleconference panel hosted by Jessica Vaughn with the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS). During that conference, Louderback discussed the impact in Texas these gangs are presenting and how the flood of unaccompanied alien chidren across our southern border is leading to a massive increase in the numbers of MS-13 gang members in Texas and across the U.S.

“We are inexperienced in seeing the level of brutality, savagery that MS-13 is doing here in Texas,” the south Texas sheriff told the listeners. “There are many cases in the Houston area. And out of 20,000 gang members in Houston, about 800 of them are MS-13, Mara Salvatrucha.”

“But the violence that they commit in Houston, Harris County, is unbelievable,” he continued. “And most of our citizens are unprepared and don’t have the knowledge on what’s actually going on with these gang members here in the state of Texas. And having the border here in Texas affords us a unique look into exactly what’s happening to our country, which appears first most of the time here in Texas.”

“We have multiple deportees using machetes, scalping, killing 14-year-olds, 23-year-old gang leaders, you know, luring, you know, kids into a road near Addicks Dam and using a machete, it was four of them, to hack a person to death – a 14-year-old boy, who allegedly would not murder his cousin, that they were upset about over some issue,” Louderback stated.

He is referring to the case recently concluded in Houston where Breitbart Texasreporteda MS-13 gang leader was convicted of murdering a 14-year-old boy with a machete. Jose Granados-Guevara, 23, was convicted by state district court Judge Terry Mlenniken following a three-day bench trial. The judge sentenced Granados-Guevara to spend 99 years in a state prison.

The victim, Jose Meraz, was taken by Granados-Guevara and three other gang members to a wooded area in the west part of Houston near Addicks Dam Road on September 15, 2014. The MS-13 gang members passed the machete around as they killed the boy. Meraz was sentenced to death by Granados-Guevara after he refused to kill his own cousin as part of a gang ritual, theHouston Chroniclereported.

Louderback continued, talking about a casereported last weekby Breitbart Texas where a MS-13 gang member who had previously been deported posed as a music producer with another gang member to lure a 15-year-old girl to Houston where she was repeatedly raped by the two men according to Harris County Sheriff Ron Hickman.

“We have a 15-year-old girl out of Henderson, Texas who was lured on a social media app, K-I-Kor Kik, and also MeetMe.com as MS-13 members that were posing as music talent searchers and talent, able to put her in front of certain folks to enhance her talent,” Louderback said describing the violent assault. “[They] took her captive, sexually assaulted her for two days before she was able to get free, get a cellphone, get a hold of 9-1-1. Again, a two-time deportee, MS-13 members. That’s what we’re faced with, folks.”

“We need help. We need help from the federal government,” Sheriff Louderback pleaded. He continued:

The state government’s actively involved. You know, hat’s off to them for what they’re doing. But the federal government plays a role here. And our interaction with law enforcement and federal policies that are in place now are reprehensible. They affect law enforcement. They affect our citizens. They affect our taxpayers. And it’s not a good situation, by any stretch. And, you know, my vocabulary, I get pretty passionate about this because, you know, Texas sheriffs and Texas law enforcement, you know, our citizens are important to us, as probably in all states. But it’s a unique situation here in Texas.

It is not just a Texas problem. Jessica Vaughn wrote for CIS that the problem effects cities all across the United States. “The Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, Baltimore, Long Island, Charlotte, Newark, Boston, Atlanta, Miami, and several Texas cities suffer the highest level of MS-13 violence, as shown by ICE arrests,” Vaugh stated. “Brentwood, N.Y., on Long Island, a town consumed by MS-13 crime, exemplifies the association between the huge influx of illegal alien minors and MS-13 violence levels. In a town of 60,000, there have been 30 MS-13 murders since 2010; an additional three murders this fall, plus two bodies found from the spring are being attributed to the dangerous gang.”

Vaughn attributed the growing problem to the exploitation of existing law designed to deter human trafficking that now allows these unaccompanied minors unbridled access to American cities. She wrote:

The increasing MS-13 population and violence results in part from Congress passing the 2008 Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act (TVPRA), which was intended to protect against the trafficking of unaccompanied minors. But the Obama administration has misused the law and allowed in tens of thousands of illegal alien teenagers who are neither unaccompanied nor trafficked. Over last three years the administration has used the law as a pretext to allow over 120,000 minors to remain in the country, resulting in “a national security and public safety crisis,” according to Joe Kolb, a Center fellow and author of the two reports.

Vaughn concluded, “currently an average of 260 unaccompanied youths are being allowed in every day, compared to about 150 a day in 2014. Sheriff Louderback speaks for all of the traumatized communities when he said, ‘We need help.’”

MEXICO’S STAGGERING LOOTING IN OUR

OPEN BORDERS….

Where did those vehicles go? Who stole them? Take a guess. Arizona is the temporary home of 500,000 illegal aliens. They cost Arizona taxpayers over $1 billion annually in services for schools, medical care, welfare anchor babies, loss of tax base and prisons. Illegals use those vehicles for smuggling more people and drugs from around the world into our country. When the vehicles are recovered, they are smashed-up wrecks in the desert. If not found, they have new owners south of the border as thieves drive the cars through the desert and into Mexico as easily as you drive your kids to soccer practice. THAT’S how porous our borders are!

Even though it has gone virtually unreported by corporate media, BreitbartNews has extensively documented the Clintons’ longstanding support for “open borders.” Interestingly, as the LosAngelesTimes observed in 2007, the Clinton’s praise for globalization and open borders frequently comes when they are speaking before a wealthy foreign audiences and donors.

OPEN BORDERS – HOW THE DEMOCRAT PARTY DESTROYED THE GOP, THE AMERICAN WORKER and then AMERICA!

Law enforcement officials in East Texas are reporting the alleged murderer of 10-year-old Kayla Gomez-Orozco is a previously deported illegal alien from Mexico.

Officials with the Smith County jail confirmed to Breitbart Texas that Gustavo Gonzalez, 24, is currently being held in the jail on an immigration detainer from Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. Gonzalez was also confirmed to be a Mexican national by the jail official.

East Texas Matters reporter Michael Wesp reported an unnamed law enforcement official claimed that Gonzalez was previously deported in 2014 for a “violent crime.” Court records show that Gonzalez was arrested twice in 2014 on charges for assault causing bodily injury.

The previously deported criminal alien is also reported to be a family member of Kayla Gomez-Orozco, the young girl whose body was found on Saturday. The body of the young girl was found in a well at a home in Smith County Texas, according to Sheriff Larry Smith. Gonzalez was initially reported to be Kayla’s uncle, but family members later clarified that he is a “cousin who acted like an uncle to Kayla.”

Kayla disappeared on Tuesday following a church service at the Bullard First Assembly Church. Her body was found wearing the same clothes on Saturday night in a well near a family member’s house.

The church were Kayla disappeared is located in Cherokee County. Officials with the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office referred questions from Breitbart Texas to the FBI in Dallas. A spokesperson for the FBI was not immediately available Sunday afternoon to respond.

No motive for the homicide has been released by law enforcement officials.

Smith County jail records show that the arrest of Gonzalez was made by Texas Rangers assigned to assist Cherokee County in the investigation. Breitbart Texas reached out to the Texas Department of Public Safety for additional information. No spokesperson was immediately available for comment.

A vigil for the young East Texas girl is scheduled for Sunday evening at Jack Elementary School.

Gonzalez has been living in Bullard, Texas. He is currently being held on the immigration detainer as the Cherokee County and Smith County District Attorneys determine what additional charges will be filed.

Fermin Rivera, 28, allegedly beat a puppy to death while trying to break into a neighborhood home. During the attempted burglary, Rivera had broken into the backyard but was met with barking by a small puppy. Surveillance cameras show Rivera subsequently “cornered the Bichon-Maltese mix, lifted the dog over his head and slammed it down with all his strength on the concrete slab twice.” River is now reportedly “facing felony counts of animal cruelty charges and attempted burglary charges.” Rivera is reportedly on an immigration hold.

The flow of illegal-alien teenagers from Central America represents a negation of immigration law of a kind similar to (albeit smaller in scale than) what Angela Merkel has wrought in Germany. Using as its rationale a law designed to protect unaccompanied minors who’ve been trafficked (forcibly brought here), the Obama administration has admitted as de facto permanent residents scores of thousands of teenagers who were neither trafficked nor unaccompanied (and not even checked to see if they’re actually minors). What’s worse, Obama has effectively acted as a subcontractor to the smuggling cartels by delivering the illegal-alien teens to their illegal-alien families in the U.S. Tens of thousands more are acting on Obama’s invitation and heading north.

It would also establish a “2-year mandatory minimum federal prison sentence for illegally re-entering the U.S. after a previous deportation, and a 5-year mandatory minimum for illegally re-entering for those with felony convictions, multiple misdemeanor convictions, or two or more prior deportations.”

Clinton amnesty plan would cost taxpayers $1.2 trillion

Hillary Clinton's plan to bring 11 million illegal aliens "out of the shadows" would cost American households an immediate tax increase of $1.2 trillion, or $15,000 per household, according to a study by the National Academy of Sciences.

Zombie Immigration Law

Today is the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Adjustment Act, a Cold War relic which gives green cards to all Cuban illegal immigrants who make it to our shores, whether or not they have a case for political asylum. The 25th anniversary of the dissolution of the Soviet Empire is coming up in a few weeks, meaning that the Cuban Adjustment Act has outlived its rationale by a generation, and counting.

As I wrote earlier this year, illegal immigration from Cuba is growing rapidly. These migrants don’t even pretend to be refugees escaping Castro; they come for work, to join relatives, to send money home, and, in many cases, to sign up for welfare and then return to Cuba (their relatives cash the checks and send them the money).

Cuba is certainly not a democracy, but it’s no longer a Monroe Doctrine-defying outpost of a hostile foreign empire, either. Heck, it’s not even really totalitarian any more, having evolved into an authoritarian gangster state, like so many others in the Third World. We’ve sent back large numbers of Cuban illegals (those caught at sea are admitted only if they can make a plausible claim for asylum) and they’re not confined to camps, North Korea-style; some, in fact, keep trying to get here, like migrants from any other poor, decrepit country.

You’d think Obama – Castro fan that he is, like the rest of his leftist ilk – would be eager to change the law and take away the stigma on the Cuban regime that it represents. But that would mean 50,000 fewer immigrants this year, and there’s nothing more important that increasing immigration. (And it doesn’t hurt that new Cuban arrivals skew Democrat.)

It’s time we declare victory in the Cold War and retire this anachronism. Illegal aliens from Zimbabwe or Turkmenistan don’t automatically get to stay – why should Cubans?

One of the talking points of the pro-amnesty crowd is that immigration is stabilizing or even declining, and thus is no longer an acute problem. Illegal immigration is down and Mexican immigration is supposedly net zero or even negative. Therefore the only remaining reason to persist in opposing “comprehensive immigration reform” is bigotry, nativism, blah, blah, blah.

Well, it turns out that immigration is surging. Newly released data from the Census Bureau shows that 1.5 million immigrants, legal and illegal, moved here in 2014, up 17 percent from the prior year, and up 38 percent from 2011. Data for the first six months of 2015 suggest last year’s total was even higher, at 1.6 million.

Between one-quarter and one-third of the 1.5 million new arrivals in 2014 were illegal aliens, meaning that a conservative estimate is that 1,000 illegal aliens a day are moving to the United States. Other research suggests more than half of these new illegals are overstaying temporary visas rather than infiltrating across the borders. A thousand new illegals a day is indeed a lower level that the spike a decade ago, but it can hardly be described as success – and, in any case, the number is climbing again.

The total immigrant population reached a record 43.3 million in 2015. Another sign of the surge is that the total grew twice as fast during 2013-2015 as it did during the previous four-year period.

One part of the “don’t-worry-pass-amnesty” narrative that’s true is the drop off in Mexican immigration. Although the number of new immigrants from Mexico grew in 2014, and was higher than any year since 2009, it’s still less than half the level of the early 2000s. That’s mostly because there’s just not that many potential migrants left in the Mexican countryside, most of them having already moved to the city – either their own cities or one of ours.

But – and I know this comes as a surprise to some politicians – there are about 7 billion potential immigrants living outside Mexico. That’s why immigration from Asia, from Africa & the Mideast, and from non-Mexico Latin America is more than making up for the decline in Mexican immigration. Arrivals from non-Mexico Latin America in 2014 were up 71 percent from 2011, while immigration from East & South Asia and from Africa & the Middle East were each up 33 percent. The large majority of the world’s people are poorer than the average Mexican, and cheap transportation makes it easier than ever for them to get to our borders.

The NAS report does not distinguish between legal and illegal immigrants. But, as noted, the report does provide fiscal projections for immigrants at different education levels. Because the education level of adult illegal immigrants is approximately known, the NAS projections enable us to project the future fiscal costs of illegal immigrants if they were granted amnesty or “earned citizenship” as a group.

Based on the education level of illegal immigrants, the NAS figures project that the net fiscal cost (benefits minus taxes) for 10 million adult illegal immigrants after receiving amnesty would have a net present value of negative $1.29 trillion.

The concept of “net present value” is complex; it places a much lower value on future expenditures than on current expenditures. One way to grasp net present value is that it represents that total amount of money that would have to be raised today and put in a bank account earning 3 percent interest above the inflation rate in order to cover future costs.

As noted above, this means that if amnesty were enacted, government would have to immediately raise taxes by $1.29 trillion and put that sum into a high-yield bank account to cover the future fiscal losses that will be generated by the amnesty recipients and their children.

And to cover the future cost, each U.S. household currently paying federal income tax would have to pay, on average, an immediate lump sum of over $15,000.

Of course, if the federal government were to grant amnesty, it would not actually raise current taxes by $1.29 trillion and put the money in a high-yield bank to cover the future costs. Instead, in the government’s normal pattern, the costs would be unfunded and passed on to future years.

Converting a net present value figure into future outlays requires information on the exact distribution of costs over time; unfortunately, that data is not provided by the National Academy of Sciences. However, a rough estimate of future net outlays to be paid by taxpayers (in constant 2012 dollars) for illegal immigrants after amnesty is around $3.6 trillion over 75 years.

Mexican authorities have
arrested the former mayor of a rural community in the border state of Coahuila
in connection with the kidnapping, murder and incineration of hundreds of
victims through a network of ovens at the hands of the Los Zetas cartel. The
arrest comes after Breitbart Texas exposed not only the horrors of the mass
extermination, but also the cover-up and complicity of the Mexican government.

On Thursday morning, Coahuila state authorities arrested Sergio
Alonzo Rodriguez, the former mayor of Allende, Coahuila, on the charge of
aggravated kidnapping, information provided to Breitbart Texas by the Coahuila
government revealed. Rodriguez was the mayor of Allende, Coahuila in March,
2011, when a commando of Los Zetas kidnapped dozens of people who were then
murdered and incinerated.

Mexican court documents obtained by Breitbart Texas revealed
that the wave of terror unleashed by Los Zetas began as an internal spat
between Los Zetas, resulting in the leadership ordering the murder of every
individual related, connected or associated with two former members. The kill
list included women and children. Court documents and testimonies from victims’
relatives revealed that while the kidnappings began in 2011, they continued
well into 2013 when the crimes came to a temporary halt.

The arrest of the former mayor comes just one day after CNN’s
Jake Tapper tweeted out Breitbart Texas’ exposé on the incineration of hundreds
of victims in Allende. Tapper’s tweet set off a social media storm among U.S.
journalists who have largely ignored the horrors carried out by cartels in
Mexico.
